An Immersive Script Reading Club
Scripted is a brand-new program for curious theatergoers who want to see the story from the inside out. Think of it as a book club, but for plays—with a twist.
Each session will focus on a different production and will include:
- A guided discussion of excerpts from the script of the Arena production you’re studying
- Insider access to the creative process—from first read to final cue
- A ticket to experience its transformation to the stage
Whether you're a first-time audience member or a longtime subscriber, Scripted will deepen your connection to our work—and help you see theater the way artists do.
